I found that his lack of grammar, the unprofessional use of contact through yahoo messenger and the questions listed (although all information was provided on my resume', unfortunately) to be rather suspicious... So I typed his name into Google and found this site with various reports. Hopefully, I will not be attacked in any way because of the information that he has been given... I have decided to refrain from any further activity on Craigslist. I hope that he will be caught.
